By default now Firefox for Android shares an extra link with TRACKING for advertising itself. This is the features that everyone loves.

Ok, buried in the menu there's an option to disable this shit. But it's infuriating that a "please spam my friends and track the opening rate of my links" option is enabled by default

I assumed it defaulted to on. I use Vanadium on mobile, and don't use WhatsApp. So I wasn't going to try to check.

I just meant that defaulting to off is the only way 'features' like this are even remotely acceptable.
